For those certificate/frame items, could you provide item-level drawings and specifications for dimensions, paper/stock, printing, seals, gold/silver finishes, frames, glazing, mats and packaging? Which artwork, templates, signatures, certificate stock or seals would USPTO furnish? In particular, must the metallic seals use a specified foil-stamping or embossing process, or may an equivalent UV/gold-leaf process be evaluated against a sample? We would not assume process equivalence without your approval. Please also identify the item specifications and quantities for the third Leadership in Action tier and the Distinguished/Exceptional Career Awards where these involve certificate/frame work.
